There's a dark shadow over Red Creek.
Once a best-selling horror author, Paul Alenn is in a slump. His wife and daughter are across the country, moved away to the West Coast, leaving him alone in his Central Park-adjacent New York townhouse.
When his sister calls, asking for help packing up his estranged mother’s house in his old hometown, Red Creek, he decides to put the past behind him and face his demons.
What he finds back home is an ongoing mystery that stems from his childhood, a time he has no recollection of. When a boy is taken on his second night in the Creek, Paul starts to unravel a dark past…one he hadn’t even known was buried. All paths lead to the orchard and the eccentric owners, but Paul doesn’t know if the shadow he keeps seeing is real, or his imagination’s cover-up of a traumatic event.
With help from his former best friend, his brother-in-law, and a cranky old sheriff, Paul digs up the truth of the shadow looming over Red Creek.
MY REVIEW: 3.5 Stars ⭐️
Read with my awesome friends from Horror Aficionados
The beginning of the book didn’t grab me. In fact, I thought I just might stop reading the book. I’m glad I stuck it out. I loved the characters, even the ones I was sure I would hate through the whole book.
I don’t want to keep writing the same thing as everyone else ...but... Paul is a writer. He comes back to his hometown to get his family home ready to sell. Well, Paul gets back in with some of his old friends and they end up having to fight some evil.
This shadow man or someone is taking the children in the town. Paul and his friends do everything to stop the evil. Seems it has something to do with Paul’s childhood as well.
I want to know who this shadow man is.
The book doesn’t end on a cliffhanger but it does say at the end of the book to read the second book
to get any answers from this book. FYI: Both books are on Kindle Unlimited US
Happy Reading!

Paul whimpered and froze in fear. The shadow man was here for him, just like it had been for all the rest of them, it’s lair full of their small undeveloped bones.
